  • Patent number: 9289872
    Abstract: A multi-wheel grinder tool provides multiple grinding wheels and polishing pads arranged in a single row, and moving along an edge of a stone slab. The tool is effective for increasing the longitudinal surface area for grinding across the edge of a stone slab. The wheels rotatably grind the edge of the slab while simultaneously moving along the longitudinal axis. As the wheels pass along the longitudinal axis, the pad rotatably engage the edge. The edge of the slab is in contact with each pad from all the wheels. A control wheel is powered by a motor via a gear system and a control axle. Outer wheels are in rotatable communication with the control wheel and run counter to each other. By using multiple wheels, grinding is expedited. The wheels have pads with successive grits. A first pad has course grinding grits. A last pad has fine polishing.

  • Patent number: 7025053
    Abstract: A cutting table for large stone work-pieces, such as marble includes an axel fixed to a base, and a spinning drum attached to the axel. A brake cooperates with the axel and the drum, either stopping or allowing the drum to rotate around the stationary axel. A mounting-plate attaches to the drum, and the mounting-plate attaches and supports a rectangular frame. On top of the frame, a surface-scaffold attaches by at least one hinge. The hinge, with the assistance of a lifting means, allows the scaffold to move from a position flat upon the frame to a position perpendicular to the frame. A work-surface for cutting large stone pieces attaches to and is supported by the scaffold. To manipulate a large stone work-piece, such as one of marble, a user positions the work-surface perpendicular to the frame and rests the work piece flush next to it. The user then lowers the lifting means, thereby rotating the work-surface and its juxtaposed work piece approximately ninety degrees to a position flat upon the frame.
